Chhattisgarh Teachers Get Free PC Training
By: IANS   |   Apr 21,2007
Thousands of primary school teachers in Chhattisgarh will become computer savvy with the government and Intel Corp signing a pact to provide computer training to them.

"We want teachers to be computer savvy and updated on all the latest in IT so that they can pass on the knowledge to the 3.4 million students in primary schools," Education Minister Medharam Sahu told IANS.

The state has 31,086 primary schools, including 9,263 located in backward areas dominated by tribal population,

"The government has signed a MoU with Intel to impart free training to primary school teachers," Sahu said. "Computer trained teachers will bring a revolution in the state."

Intel will train teachers under its 'World Ahead Programme'. The teachers will also attend workshops and seminars.

Sahu said, "For a poverty-hit state like Chhattisgarh where school dropout rates are always of major concern, computer-trained teachers will help inspire the students to attend classes regularly."
